Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

If we use two words to describe this year's smartphone market, it is "difficult" and "volume". "difficult" is that the overall shipments of the domestic mobile phone market are still declining, while the "volume" is that the number of new mobile phone products of various brands has not decreased, and the performance-to-price ratio is getting higher and higher. especially in the mid-market, various manufacturers desperately pile up materials, and some products comprehensive experience even do not lose flagship money.

Against this backdrop, on September 21, Redmi released the long-preheated new Redmi Note 13 series of phones, which claims to raise the ceiling of the mid-range mobile experience. You know, although the market is already big, overall shipments are still declining, so how far do mid-range phones need to boost the experience in order to capture the hearts and minds of consumers? The Redmi Note 13 series gives its own answer.

Now that CTOnews.com has got one of the super-large cup light dream space color matching Redmi Note 13 Pro+, let's learn more about this phone through evaluation.

1. In terms of appearance design, Redmi has evolved the shape and texture of the Note 13 Pro + phone, using curved screen design and 25 °custom curvature for the first time, achieving a balance on the basis of the width and thickness of the whole machine.

At the same time, in the transition between the screen and the middle frame, Redmi Note 13 Pro + removes the screen bracket, making the whole connection look more natural and smooth.

After lighting the screen, you can see that the Redmi Note 13 Pro + is still very narrow, especially the very narrow bottom edge of the 2.37mm, which makes the front visual feel more powerful.

Look at the back of the fuselage, CTOnews.com got this light dream space for Note's first plain leather material version, the leather feel is very delicate and high-end, more unique is its back color style, four colors are low saturation light color system, with the texture of plain leather, more gentle and elegant.

According to the official introduction, these colors have gone through 27 times of spray color adjustment, 20 times of imprinting adjustment and 69 process acceptance, through 3D multi-color UV printing and imprinting technology, forming a fashion look and feel of four-color orderly cutting.

As for the camera, the three lenses of Redmi Note 13 Pro + grow directly on the plain leather backplane, and the metal ring base of the main shot and ultra-wide-angle lens has a fine brushed texture, adding some aura to the design of the back of the fuselage.

The middle frame of the fuselage is directly connected to the front and rear panel, and there are delicate chamfers on both sides of the middle frame for hand transition. The surface is metal-like fine sandblasting and the feel is soft.

This shallow dream space Redmi Note 13 Pro + has a thickness of 9mm and weighs only 199g. The phone is small and light, and it will be easier to use every day. Coupled with its outstanding appearance and texture, it is believed that it will be the food of many friends.

Second, performance experience Redmi in Note 13 Pro + the launch of TSMC Tianji 7200-Ultra mobile chip, this chip uses TSMC second generation 4nm process, the eight-core CPU architecture consists of 2 2.8GHz Arm Cortex-A715 cores and 6 Cortex-A510 cores.

In addition, the chip integrates Arm Mali-G610 GPU and AI processor APU 650. it carries a 14-bit HDR-ISP image processor Imagiq 765 tailored for 200 megapixels and supports up to 200 megapixel camera and 4K HDR video recording.

In terms of memory, the version in the editor's hand is 16GB LPDDR5 and 512GB UFS 3.1.

In the performance test, CTOnews.com first ran a score test on Note 13 Pro +:

Among them, the comprehensive score of Redmi Note 13 Pro + in the running score of Anhare V10 version is 766767. In the memory test, the sequence read speed is 1998.3MB/s, the order write speed is 1600.7MB/s, the random read 365.0MB/s is 328.0MB/s. In the running score of GeekBench 5, Redmi Note 13 Pro + single core 887 points, multi-core 2513 points.

Next, CTOnews.com tested the game on Redmi Note 13 Pro +. The first choice was "Arena of Valor". The frame rate and resolution of the game were "ultra-high". The other options were set to the maximum, and the phone turned on performance mode for a game of about 13 minutes.

After the game is over, the average frame rate of Redmi Note 13 Pro + is 60.13fps, and the whole process is smooth and smooth.

From the point of view of the core scheduling of CPU, two A715 cores will continue to rise to 2.8GHz and fall back to provide the necessary performance support, while six A510s fluctuate between 1.1GHz-2.0GHz, and the performance output is stable.

When the game is running, the average power consumption of Redmi Note 13 Pro + is 3.07W, and the power consumption is not high. At the same time, the highest temperature of the fuselage is measured near the back camera, which is 37.8℃, slightly higher.

Next is "Game for Peace". When the game is in progress, the screen is the highest "Ultra HD" option, the frame rate is "Ultra High", and other picture quality options are also set to the highest. After about 22 minutes of a game, the average frame rate of the game is 40fps, which is basically the full frame of the game.

In addition, the average power consumption of Redmi Note 13 Pro + running "Game for Peace" is 2.9W, while the highest body temperature is 40.3 ℃, which is still slightly higher.

Finally, CTOnews.com challenged the original God with Redmi Note 13 Pro +, using the medium special effects provided by the system, but raising the game frame rate limit to 60fps.

The test was then conducted for about 20 minutes. During the test, I spent half of my time hanging out in Liyue City and half of my time in the wild.

At the end of the game, the average frame rate of Redmi Note 13 Pro + is 50.08fps. The number of frames in the game is not stable, but the overall frame rate performance still reaches the playable level, which exceeds the editor's expectation.

While running Yuanshen, the average power consumption of Redmi Note 13 Pro + is about 4.1W, and the highest measured body temperature is about 43.6℃, which is also an acceptable level.

Overall, the performance of Redmi Note 13 Pro + is slightly higher than expected for a mid-range phone, sufficient for daily use and entertainment, and playable for games like "original God", indicating that its performance limit is also good.

Third, in terms of image performance, the Redmi Note 13 Pro + is equipped with a 200-megapixel camera enhanced by Samsung ISOCELL HP3 Exploration Edition, with a sensor size of 1.4in, a four-in-one 2.24um fusion of large pixels, support for OIS,7P lenses, and ultra-low ALD back coating. It is also equipped with an 8-megapixel main shot and a 2-megapixel macro lens.

For 200 megapixels, Tianji 7200-Ultra chip has a special optimization, under the cooperation of Redmi and MediaTek, through self-developed "high-pixel engine", the imaging of 200 megapixels is fully tuned, and makes full use of the AI capability of the chip side, greatly improving the clarity of the chip.

First of all, in the daytime environment where there is plenty of light, we can see that the photos of Redmi Note 13 Pro + are clear and sharp, the color style tends to be cold and colourful, and the whole picture looks clean and transparent.

Based on the ultra-high resolution of 200 megapixel hardware straightout, combined with the In- Sensor Zoom algorithm, Note 13 Pro + also enables lossless high-pixel information acquisition of up to 12.5 million at 2x and 4x zoom. A lens is used to realize the lossless zoom ability of 23mm, 46mm and 92mm at the same time.

For example, in the following scene, CTOnews.com uses 1 ×, 2 × and 4 × zoom, respectively. You can see that even at 4 × zoom, the picture is still clear and full of details, which is almost no different from the normal optical zoom lens of other mobile phones.

1 ×

2 ×

4 × so how does the picture of this 4 × zoom lens compare with the magnified image of a 200-megapixel camera? CTOnews.com took another shot in straight-out mode with a 200-megapixel lens and zoomed in on the house in the picture.

200 million pixel

With a local magnification of 200 billion pixels, we can see that the enlarged house is still very clear and the details are very rich, but compared with the picture of 4 × zoom lens, there is a slight deficiency in the optimization of picture quality, and the sample exposure of 4 × zoom lens is more accurate and bright.

The following scene mainly looks at the analytical power through the billboard on the isolation board. First of all, the standard mode enlarges the photo, and the small print on the slogan can barely be seen, but most of the text and strokes have been pasted together, and on the whole, the analytical power of the standard mode is regular.

When you switch to 4x zoom mode, the sign becomes much clearer, and the small print can be seen clearly, but there will be shadows around the text.

After shooting and zooming in using the 200-megapixel straight-out mode, the billboard is as clear as the 4 × zoom mode, and the text of the 200-megapixel display in this scene is sharper than the 4 × zoom mode.

200 million pixel sample

The local magnification effect of 200 megapixel mode can be seen, and the optimization of 200 megapixel photography by Redmi Note 13 Pro + is satisfactory, not only the picture is clear and rich in detail. The adjustment of the picture quality is not very different from that of the main photo.

Next, let's take a look at a high-light ratio scene, taking pictures from the dimly lit corridor, Redmi Note 13 Pro + also shows good HDR ability, the brightness in the corridor is brighter than that seen by the naked eye, and the picture is pure and almost noiseless. At the same time, the highlight outside the corridor is not overexposed, and the sky of the trees in the distance is still clear.

If you look at the performance of the ultra-wide-angle lens, compared with the wide-angle main shot, the field of vision of the picture is indeed wider, and there is no obvious distortion. However, comparing the imaging style of the two photos, we can see that the color temperature of the ultra-wide-angle lens is slightly warmer, unlike the cold and showy wind of the main photo.

Ultra-wide angle

Wide angle and then look at the pictures at night. CTOnews.com first took a picture in front of the mall. The photo straight out in standard mode is bright enough, the picture is clean and almost free of noise, but the dynamic range is slightly inadequate, and the large screen on the side of the building is overexposed.

After turning on the night scene mode, take another picture, the overall brightness and purity of the picture, please climb to another high-rise building, at the same time, the dynamic range performance is also better, there is no longer local overexposure.

Generally speaking, Redmi Note 13 Pro + benefits from the ultra-high resolution of 200 megapixels and the special optimization of Redmi, which allows the performance of mobile phones in the basic image quality, especially definition and zoom, to exceed the general level of mid-range mobile phone products, and is targeted to optimize the default mode that users use most frequently, which can be said to be spent on the cutting edge with limited resources.

Other Redmi Note 13 Pro + photo samples:

Third, when experiencing other daily use, the 1.5K screen of Redmi Note 13 Pro + left a good impression on CTOnews.com. Its specific resolution is 2712 × 1220 and PPI reaches 446. no matter browsing the web page to read the article or browsing the picture, it feels clearer and does not consume power like the 2K screen. It can be said that there is a balance between ultra high definition and power saving.

In addition, the screen also has the flagship peak brightness of 1800nit, and the contrast is even stronger when watching HDR videos, so it will be a good experience to watch movies and dramas.

In the dim light environment, Redmi Note 13 Pro + also supports 1920Hz's high-frequency PWM dimming, and has passed three eye protection certifications: Rhine rhythm-friendly, Rhine low blue and Rhine non-strobe, which is worthy of recognition in terms of the comprehensiveness of the screen experience.

The left side is the contrast model, and the right side is Redmi Note 13 Pro+. In addition, the core components of this Redmi Note 13 Pro+ connected with the outside world are made of polymer micro-hole waterproof material, and the core devices in contact with the medium frame are also specially customized to achieve IP68-level dustproof and waterproof. The editor is used to following the video on his mobile phone while cooking. Once he accidentally slipped the phone into the sink in the kitchen, picked it up and dried it and continued to use it without being affected. Therefore, IP68 class dustproof and waterproof allows you to use your mobile phone in more situations.

Finally, there is the experience of charging and battery life. Redmi Note 13 Pro + is equipped with Xiaomi's self-developed thepaper.cn battery management system, using 120W+5000mAh fast charging combination, CTOnews.com measured that the battery will be charged from 0 to 100% in only 27 minutes.

In terms of battery life, CTOnews.com did a two-hour battery test. During the test, the brightness of the phone screen and the system volume were set to 50%. The whole process was carried out in the Wi-Fi environment, and Bluetooth was enabled.

At the beginning of the test, the editor first played "Game for Peace" with Redmi Note 13 Pro + for 30 minutes, consuming 1% of electricity and 99% of the remaining power.

Then browsing Weibo for 15 minutes consumes 2% electricity and has 97% remaining power.

Then brush the CTOnews.com for another 15 minutes, the power consumption is 2%, and the remaining power is 95%.

Then browse Douyin for 15 minutes, with 3% power consumption and 92% remaining power.

Finally, use bilibili to watch a 45-minute 1080p high frame rate video, which consumes 5% power and has 87% remaining power.

Overall, in about 2 hours of testing, the Redmi Note 13 Pro + consumed 13% of the power, the remaining power at the end of the test was 87%, and the battery life performance was the same as that of a large 5000mAh battery.

Conclusion as a "super cup" in a mid-range mobile phone, Redmi Note 13 Pro + does not blindly pursue leapfrog performance, but gives a leapfrog experience in many aspects, such as body quality, screen, charging life, and so on, as well as the blessing of 200 megapixels at the image level, combined with the starting price of 1999 yuan (the first sale is 1899 yuan). Generally speaking, this is a very cost-effective phone. It's just that this performance-to-price ratio is not based on simple performance, but on a comprehensive daily experience. To say that it is insufficient, there is still some room for optimization of the heat control of Redmi Note 13 Pro + when playing games.

In the context of the growing volume of the midmarket mobile phone market, Redmi Note 13 Pro + uses a different volume method to take the product experience at this price to a higher level. This is a product worthy of serious consideration for students who recently want to buy a mid-range model or use it as a backup outside of their flagship.

Of course, if your requirements for performance and charging speed are not very high, you can also choose the first sale Redmi Note 13 Pro which costs only 1399 yuan. Compared with the super-large cup Note 13 Pro+, its processor is the second generation Snapdragon 7smith67Wend5100mAh charging combination, which supports IP54 waterproof and dustproof, while the graphene homogenizing plate area and Wi-Fi and other functions have been reduced, and the overall performance-to-price ratio is still good. And if your budget is relatively adequate, then Note 13 Pro + is obviously a better choice.
